Ray is an AI teammate that works in your team chat, on Slack today. Connect Google Drive and it can do the Google Drive part of a request without anyone leaving the conversation: read what it needs, draft the change, and post it for approval before anything is written. 12 reads run without asking. 10 actions wait for a human approval.

## What Ray reads in Google Drive

Reading changes nothing, so Ray never stops to ask whether it may look something up.

- Files and folders, where they live, and when they changed
- Comments, replies, and revisions
- Shared drives

## What waits for your approval

Every one of these posts an approval card in the thread showing exactly what is about to happen. Nothing runs until someone clicks approve, and no setting turns that off.

- Create a file or a folder
- Replace a file's contents
- Move, rename, or copy a file
- Comment on a file, reply, or edit either

## Things Ray is never handed

These are left out during curation, so they are not something Ray could do and decides against. They are not in front of it at all.

- Delete a file, a folder, or a comment
- Add or remove a shared drive
- Change who a file is shared with

## Ask it like this

- "@Ray where is the Q3 forecast, and what did Dana say on it?"

## Connecting Google Drive

Every person on the team connects their own Google Drive account on Google Drive's own login screen, so Ray can only reach what that person can already reach, and the history in Google Drive shows who actually asked. Passwords never pass through Ray. Disconnecting Google Drive or uninstalling Ray revokes the connection.
